I mean a 6 x 6 x 2.4 is easy peasy to sell and you can pick up $1,000 more or less for little work. Get a few of these up in a week and you’re doing ok. Or you might sell a farm shed or two and you’re making 5K for the same amount of work. Money for jam. So, I am guessing you are working on anything from a 20-30% markup. After all, you can’t go much higher, as you need to be competitive. In fact, you always need to be competitive. And what’s more, it’s not always 20-30%, sometimes it needs to be 15-20 % or less to get the sale, as we all know. ***What if you could get 40% + markup on a job?  *** ***That markup is in Special Designs.*** Have a look at this case in point. Here is a customer who came to us and had to have what he had to have. Below is what he came to us with.  His total build cost from a traditional builder utilising fabricated trusses was estimated at 1.2 mill. He thought that was a bit much and looked around and our name came up. We got to work and designed the building from a mixture of C section, Universal Beam and a block wall and this is what we came up with.  ***The customer’s original brief…*** ![Computer generated drawings of a one off special shed design](https://blog.quotec.com.au/hs-fs/hubfs/Imported_Blog_Media/original-brief-scaled.jpg?width=2560&height=1010&name=original-brief-scaled.jpg) ***This was our base design prior to adding the bling…*** ![A 3D render of a on off shed design showing the full render and the shed frame](https://blog.quotec.com.au/hs-fs/hubfs/Imported_Blog_Media/base-design-1024x399.jpg?width=800&height=312&name=base-design-1024x399.jpg) Besides the experience of designing the building and solving the various problems that came along, we managed to save the client a hefty sum and we didn’t do too badly either.  Who were competing against? **No one.** There wasn’t a single traditional shed manufacturer in the country that was prepared to tackle this job. We did, we saw opportunity. ![Annotated plans for a one off shed design](https://blog.quotec.com.au/hs-fs/hubfs/Imported_Blog_Media/frame.jpg?width=1510&height=950&name=frame.jpg) At [**Quotec Live**](https://www.quotec.com.au/quotec-live/)as well as having great shed software we have a particular knack for designing one-off special.
